So muc he went from Good to a horrible character in matter of a panel.
Tobi was awesome.
Obito was a pedo killing innocent people for a mistake in WAR

I don't think Rin was the problem. It was how Obito was made out to be that was.

Tobi was awesome and Obito could have been just as great if Kishi didn't make him SOOOOO fixated on a dead character that he'd go to these extremes.

That only thing ruined his character(most people's opinion).

Could have been a way cooler villain and even Obitokage would be cool.

hes uchiha. mental illness is the best quality in a villian. c:
he was doomed to fall to tnj since the moment he was created especially after nagatos betrayal. kishi could have done a better job foreshadowing his identity and whatever happened to that girl in kakashi gaiden.
he started a war to end shinobi. mist and other villiages are still responsible for their own actions that created his butthurt.

Why Obito is a badly written character if some trolls like to use stupid term like pedo for him when both of them were almost the same age?

Why should we ignore the circumstances right before and after Rin's death? A young carefree idealist kid ends up horribly crippled and almost dead ( he would without Zetsu healing with half his body gone) in care of cunning schemer Madara. That much for psychological rehabilitation .. with final trigger of seeing friends die- always makes uchihas lose themselves.

I find the subsequent scene of the bloody and gory mayhem Obito causes when he loses himself-

"I'm in hell"

-one of the most profound words in the manga. Obito was standing with in a few inches deep pool blood and dead bodies all around him - once a kind kid, killing people in one of the most horrible ways possible and he didn't even notice when he did it. Only after the incident he stands there and takes in everything that happened. It brings the harsh reality of war near home. One sees not only their friends dying all around themselves but they realize how cruel they themselves can be - for the first time.

It's impossible to not be affected with something like that. How much and how it affects them depends on the individuals. How much they can cope with the harshness themselves and how much help they get. Madara showed him the easy way out-make a dream world where nothing happened and everything is just fine, along with filling his brain with own ideas of hate and injustice. In the dream world every one was under control and no one died, nothing bad happened.

"You let rin die" was just that- the trigger. Obito said it was not about Rin only but of course that panel won't suit for the bashing so it's ignore conveniently. Rin flash backs keep coming back because that's the last happy memory he had from his older life when everything was still nice and life was relatively innocent.

News flash: for Tobi/Obito the war was still on when he killed people so your logic can go both ways. It's not like he was randomly appearing in random civilian homes slitting few throats for fun without any purpose and disappearing.

How a character is written sometimes depends on how you want to focus on a character.

Rin was a perfectly descent character; I do not understand all of these unjustifed hates she's receiving. It was Obito that had allowed himself to be manipulated.​

Rin destroyed obito's character. He would have been better had she never existed.

Rin gets hate because of Obito. Rin is a good character herself. Obito ruined his own character by chanting Rin's name a million times over and over

It doesn't matter. Obito let himself be manipulated. That's all there is to it at the end of the day. Nothing more, nothing less. If anyone is to receive hate then it should be Obito. Lel some primary school girl that used to be part of his life shouldn't to be hated. Especially those obito tards that think she ruined his character.

True dat​
